6:05 pm
sites in iran, where it believes that she rhenium has been enriched. it wants to know what's happened to that uranium and indeed to the devices that were used to enrich the uranium. the iranian government has not given any kind of assurances a to the material where it is nor indeed be to what's happened to the equipment used to enrich it. as a consequence of that, the i a put through a resolution on wednesday evening, which deplored that situation called on the iranians to return to compliance with the conditions they'd agree to sign up to in the 1st place. that didn't happen. as a consequence, we have the news conference, which was the grossey gave, and we have the iranian government making that announcement about the removal of those $27.00 further cameras at relevant sites. and there is also the fact that the iranian government has said it's going to install new high grades,
6:06 pm
centrifuges called cascades at some of its facilities, all of which shows the level of difference of distance between the 2 sides. and if we are to believe mister grossey, than in his opinion within the next 4 weeks that nuclear deal, or any hopes of reviving it could be dealt a fatal blow. dominic cane in berlin with the latest. thanks very much, donna. the now there's be more shelling and strict fighting in the eastern ukrainian city of super ordinance, which is now mostly under russian control. the cities mass says it's not impossible to move any civilians out. ukrainian authorities say their troops are still battling from the outskirts of the city, and the accused russian forces of destroying many buildings saw intimidated show significant damage to ship ro desk and a neighboring city. charles trumpet has more from grocery on the outskirts of the

6:08 pm
are ongoing evacuation efforts to try and get as many of those civilians out. but a very serious situation around civil don't ask and increasingly to the south. as i say, lucy chance, we also understand that russian forces are trying to push up out of towns that they control like propulsion of that south of lisa chance. we understand that this is an effort by russian forces to come in from the southeast and the north in order to surround ukrainian forces in those 2 towns. as i say, several done, it can lucy chance a lot of heavy fighting in the east today. now you creating president is wanting millions of people around the world could star because of rushes. blockade of his countries. black sea port, bottom is landscape, says ukraine is unable to explore large quantities of wheat, corn, and vegetable oil. now he's calling for russia to be expelled from the us. food and agriculture organisation will be with the account to be any discussion on prolonging rushes membership. and the if i owe the food and agriculture

organization of the united ations. what is the for russia to do if they are causing hunger for at least a whole 100000000 people, or potentially more than a 1000000000? plus take a closer look at what options ukraine house for getting its grains to the world market. usually keith would use its ports on the black sea and the sea of as all well before the war. those would have handled around 90 percent of its food exports . but now the either blockaded or in russian hands. another option is overland to remain his black sea port of constantino. steve has already sent more than 600000 tons of grain, but that 73 percent of what it needs to move before the next harvest in july. and that isn't easy. all of it has to be sent by barge train, and truck. also rail could be used poland and other parts of europe at the average waiting time for freight train crossings into the year. is now 16 days. o christian salumi looks un efforts to help strike a deal on ukraine's ports. the secretary general has been attempting to help broker
6:10 pm
a deal between russia and ukraine to bring more grain and fertilizer to market. noting that the number of severely food and secure people in the world has more than doubled in the last 2 years. at 1st it was coven. and now it is the conflict as well. the fact that so much ukrainian grain remain stuck in silos, unable to leave port. it's not just food prices that are going up. it's also fertilizer and fuel prices as well. un is warning that more than half of the developing world isn't that distress. but even rich countries are feeling the pinch . now at a time when they're being asked to contribute more humanitarian assistance. i think western debt from out for worried that the global coalition of countries that originally condemned russia's aggression will fragment. and we're definitely seeing arab countries and african countries tending to step back and avoid
6:11 pm
condemning russia now because they are very concerned about what the conflict means of our economy. there's also a lot of concern that western aid is going to dry up because a money is being diverted to ukraine. and in some countries, these economic factors could actually lead to social unrest. now, russia's blamed sanctions for the price increases. the west points out that there are no sanctions on food or fertilizer. food shortages partly caused by the ukraine war. one of the biggest challenges facing somalia as it inaugurated new president hassan shake, mounted not international leaders gathered for the ceremony. including the kenyan president and ethiopian prime minister, hammered, also secured a landslide victory against the incumbent mohammed of july. he for mad you last month not we'll have to deal. he'll have to deal with security threats, rising inflation, severe drought, and of course conflict. malcolm web has more from nairobi. the ceremony took place
6:12 pm
in an aircraft hung a inside morbid issue green zone, which is one of the few parts of the country that fully under the control of the somali federal government and the foreign forces that it depends on. it did not same room just a few weeks ago. her son shake one election, but it's just members of parliament who got to vote the general public didn't get to vote in political process by which tamales leaders are selected. now of note that this ceremony for the inauguration with canyon president who kenyata this follows a couple of years of fairly sour relations between kenya and somalia. on the high san shake, treat assessor former president mohammed up the law. he saw my relations became quite sense around a maritime borders. this is the oil beneath the sea, but people in both country, the, it's up trade, deteriorated, security cooperation,
6:13 pm
deteriorated but the president who kenyatta was that today and talked about redeeming trade resuming flights and so on. so it looks like there's a turing of relations on the card there. who donnelly is a smaller analyst to attend, to be throwing in. certainly in mogadishu, she explains why people are hopeful about the new leadership. as it has been chaplain, has already begun to implement his campaign promise, which is really to bring some money together and the world his campaign and the valley at peace with itself in the world really has essential for him. within the 1st few weeks of his when of the and actually is really because of the country to reconcile the political leadership that has been factored over the past several years. and also the 6th and somebody is friends and allies to the
6:14 pm
table again today, ceremony witness really high level delegation that crossed the region, but also from the world. so really, you know, some idea is, is getting back on track and that president who has become really putting what he said into practice. and that's a lot is a very helpful. we're hoping that the president really not only focuses on politics, but does what, you know, each family household needs, which is obviously, you know, creating an environment that's conducive to competing in the, in the, in the global world. he has a couple of initiatives around economic recovery employment in youth initiatives. so it's early, but we do see a president who is action oriented already. well, plenty more had here. all the news are including will look as a new idea for us to solve it. supply problem,
6:15 pm
moving manufacturing and shipping from asia to latin america and the following of pi. i find that while jerry has found the impulse, you say, to funding a 20 a friendship treaty and it's all about some restore the lead in the find those as a warriors worry about that because i us present, joe biden has called on latin american leaders to help make supply chains more secure and resilient. he made the comments at the opening of the 9th summits of the americas taking place in los angeles, but usa thinks collusion of cuba, but it's whaler, nicaragua, over rights violations as overshadow the talks. mexico president and a number of other leaders are boycotting the 5 day meeting in protest. many trade experts say latin america and the caribbean would benefit from shopping us supply
6:16 pm
chains, which could mean moving some manufacturing away from asia to countries nearby. as rob reynolds explains hard, this week's summit of the americas takes place amid continuing global supply chain problems, which president joe biden will address at the port of los angeles on friday. this is really a spectacular golden opportunity. economic policy analysts say the solution to those problems lies in a concerted effort to shift manufacturing and shipping away from asia to neighbors of the us, the so called friends shoring, of supply chains. we could be talking about several millions of jobs that could be moved into those countries, linked to supply chains. and that would be transformative in those economies. but on linking the existing supply chain would not be easy, will require, but the hard infrastructure and soft infrastructure. and what do i mean by soft for structure, governments, the policy, the trade policies would how do align to adopt the new ways of looking at teens?
6:17 pm
be relations between the u. s. and countries like mexico whose president has decided not to attend the summit or tense, even if the political good will for more trade integration could be found. the job of building a vast industrial infrastructure and port facilities would take many years and hundreds of billions of dollars. but if friend shoring were realized, it would have benefits far beyond improving the fragile supply chain. it could reduce poverty and migration, curtail criminal gangs and narcotics trafficking, create good jobs, good labor conditions, environmental security, and that means your employ workers who would then be much less inclined to decide they have to get out and migrate united states or join a local drug trafficking get the time experts say is now, companies are already talking, but doing it right there is
6:18 pm
a serious conversation in the boardroom. how do we a diversified or supply and how do we make it shorter? so they're much more effective in terms of the cost, resiliency and sustainability. and america has a great opportunity to take advantage of this momentum. because if we don't do it now, one really reconfiguring supply change could be a potential win win for the us and its neighbors, but would require political will and level of trust that at the moment doesn't seem to exist. rob reynolds al jazeera los angeles. while away from the summit, thousands of refugees migrants heading north through mexico towards the united states in such a better lives. but as manuel, rapid reports crowding and extreme heat are creating dangerous conditions, reports now from chapter state, ah, a public gymnasium in southern mexico has been temporarily transformed to house
6:19 pm
thousands of migrants and asylum seekers. it's crowded and many people here are starting to get sick. medics from a humanitarian group say they're treating hundreds of people every day, but they can't tend to every one northeast and it's not enough. the flow of migrants is constant and it's big. we always need more support, more hands, more resources. conditions at the camp are also unsanitary. the risk is especially high for children. observers from unicef. see the situation here is extremely precarious. embed game, what's going on? i mean, you can see there are money people here, money, boys and girls are sick. they have fevers, their bodies covered with insect bites, and the heat is affecting small babies in particular. migrants rights, advocates organized this caravan to coincide with the summit of the americas taking
6:20 pm
place this week in los angeles. hoping to call attention to the plight of thousands of migrants who have been stuck in southern mexico for months. while most people here seem unaware of the political motivations of the caravans organizers, many or hopeful, the u. s. government will open its doors when they eventually arrive at the u. s. border. hello, fame. and i you were asking them to help us to be allowed to pass without so many obstacles without having to spend so many days sleeping on the floor. we would do anything for them to help us. there's rain on the horizon. adding to the worries that more people at the camp could also become ill. the day is coming to an end here in southern mexico and migrants are starting to look for space among the crowd to get some rest. but there are simply too many people here and not enough room to accommodate them all. it looks like many others will be forced to spend another night without
6:21 pm
a roof over their heads. though hundreds of migrants have broken away from the caravan and continued north on their own, it could be several weeks before this group reaches the us border. organizers had asked them not to grow desperate and leave on their own, adding that there are worse dangers in mexico than getting sick. but let's cross over to bowel repairing, whistling the state of shap us, and before we talk about what's going on behind you, man. well, let's talk about this migrant train, of mainly venezuelans that are on their way up north. where are they now? hail. we are now on day 4 of good migrate care van that set out from the city of tampa, chula near mexico's border with the, with guatemala, the the migrant caravan. there's a few updates that we can give on the actual size of the group. first of all, more than half of them have now split off from the main caravan group and have
6:22 pm
continued north. what we're seeing happening behind us is the rest of the, not the rest of the caravan, but a good chunk of the people here. many of them have been sleeping outside of this office building in the city of weak sla since last night. they are asking for humanitarian visas. these are transit visas that allow them to move freely through mexico without these visas. they run the risk of being of being detained on their way north toward the u. s. southern border and being sent back here to to, to southern mexico. the vast majority of people here are from venezuela, but we've also encountered people from other parts of the latin american continent from central america, from columbia, from peru, from countries in africa. so there is a mix of people here. there it is a desperate situation because again, without these transit fees as they do run the risk of being sent back to, to southern mexico. if you saw in the report that we filed many of the people that are part of this caravan are actually quite sick i, the heat is starting to,
6:23 pm
to set in here the morning get in it, we'd sla, and we know of at least one child that was convulsing, his father was sort of desperate for help. another group of, of individuals who are threatening to so their mouths shut. if immigration officials don't provide them the necessary humanitarian business to continue on their way again, people are very desperate and nevertheless committed to returning north. many of them saying that they will continue their march north towards the border with or without these transit visas. it's a very difficult decision, funny individual to decide to go a to find a better life, a, as, as many of these migrants want to do. so, how do these been migrants joined together to become caravans, of migrants and joint forces? you might say from so many places and in such volume. that's right, so i'll answer your question here shortly, but i think we should address what's going on here next to us. many of these people
6:24 pm
that are around us are members of the l. g. b, t. community that are part of this caravan. as you can see, they've already sown their mouths shot. they had been threatening to do so. many of them had been sleeping here since late last night, hoping to obtain these transit visas. they've made good on their promise to you that it is so their lips shut. the reason that we keep seeing these large groups of migrants here in southern mexico, it has everything to do with the policy that's being enforced to contain migration in the southern part of the country. with that's done, it's created a bottleneck effect where migrants are starting to pile up, and they're being left with little to no recourse other than to form these large caravans and move forward together. the idea here is that there is safety in numbers so long as that the, so long as they stay together, they won't be captured or detained, and sent back to southern mexico. but if these images say anything else, it's just the level of desperation that these people are going through. so continue to monitor it with you as manuel. manuel, paula, that from whistler,
6:25 pm
the state of shep us in mexico, thanks bundle. now the leader of tune is his main trade in the u. g t t says its being targeted by the authorities after it refused to take part in talks on new constitution. the indians took part in protest last weekend against president. i said, attempts to change the constitution. a few days earlier, he sat, dozens of judges saying they were corrupt. could say the latest move is another attempt to consolidate his power. now the jury and bank association is stopped to trade with spain after the government ended its 20, a friendship, tracy on wednesday. but gas imports will not be effected. algeria accuses spain of backing morocco's plan for the disputed western sahara region. morocco seized the former spanish colony as it sovereign territory and controls 80 percent of it. but i'll jerry a back the policy, sorry. front movement which has been fighting for the regents independence since the 1900 seventy's. she hung but the f is
6:26 pm
a senior risk analyst at the american credit rating agency, s and p global. she says, the deterioration relations good at spain hauled. the major stands there is regarding other type of important export between the 2 countries. and this is going to be main problem for thing because is a 3rd client. so when it comes to things like i re food. a or my factoring product is going to be if you're in low for spanish export years, all you're out has some leverage when it comes to migration issues, which is nothing there you are. the only difficulty that we can start seeing from a practical perspective is whether don't be when it comes to procedural measures. so for example of session for us here and who are going for thing and vice versa, worked for me as for the many workers who are in your area also has been putting increasingly more pressure on the past month. if you remember that where morocco
6:27 pm
apparently enabled pals and regular migrant regions, spanish and that was something that really was problematic for the spanish. in addition to other results, marco had been placing on saying, so i think it's finding itself in the difficult position between us and morocco. and the thing was not expecting a year in the reactions, and therefore a wave why they were willing to drop the points. no striking power to work as it's for lanka returned to work after the president promised to listen to that concerns. officer lanka had been hit by electricity cuts after a key union went to strike on thursday, halting operations of 8 hydro power plants. they were opposing government plans to remove restrictions on competitive bidding for renewable power projects. the countries 22000000 people have not faced months of blackouts and shortages of fuel,
6:28 pm
food and medicine. while still had here on the i was, is there a nissan? yeah. so what did happen on january the 6th, and why the us congressional committee is about to hold hearings plus the title, and that becomes the 1st country in asia to legalize the growing possession of marijuana and its board full most feasible set, batter glasser and michelle tuscany, are back in court to face allegations of fraud. ah, here's your weather report for the middle east and africa. hello everyone. good to see you. so the forecasts on friday we see those temperatures pick up across the gulf. same goes with the wind. this is marsha mall wind. so that's
6:29 pm
a northerly wind blowing out of iraq. we go in for a closer look around the gulf states. this is going to spin around sand and does incorporate that eastern province of saudi and guitar as well. when you consider in doha wind gusts of about 60 kilometers per hour on friday, and worse yet on saturday, gusting up to 70 kilometers per hour. now as we take a look at august on those winds are picking up the seabreeze. so that's pushing in moisture there so that could trigger some showers and thunderstorms. in karachi. we also see the dust picked up along eastern portions of the country. so bit of a dusty pitcher. and the hor, on friday with the high 45 degrees off to turkey. thunder down for seemed likely for its sample with the height of $31.00 degrees and off we go to central africa. it's actually fairly quiet here. we've got a slug of rain on that border with nigeria and cameroon. also quiet for southern africa as well. a lot of sunshine, southerly wind for the eastern cape means your temperature is at 19 degrees,
6:30 pm
but those winds will shift around out of the north. so that bumps up your temperature to 27 degrees on sunday. that's it for me. see, so, ah, the frank assessments, it sounds like you don't expect anything to change the problem in lebanon. it's actually structural lebanon needs. and you also contract in order for it to solve this problem informed opinions, international communities on the goals security. and that creates a government has knowledge to be seen in depth analysis of the data global headlines. this is going to be very hard for people to explain to the public that instead of pushing back, no, it's actually got 2 members inside story on al jazeera bowl and, and home stories and asia and the pacific. analogies. yeah. how and why did wooten become so obsessed? with this law, we were giving them a tool to hold corrupt individuals and human rights abusers accountable. they're
6:31 pm
going to rip this deal apart if they take the white house of 2025. what is the world hearing, or we're talking about why american today your weekly take on us politics and society. that's the bottom line. ah ah, what about you watching else? is there a news with me? so robin a reminder of all top stories, the head, all the international nuclear watchdog says wrong plans to disconnect. 27 surveillance cameras at its nuclear sites. in a statement to her own said it made the decision because of what it called the agencies on constructive approach. the ukranian president is wanting millions of people around the world,
6:32 pm
could starve because of russia's blockade of his country's black c ports. plumber zalinski, the plane is unable to vote large quantities of wheat corn and such to boil. also somali, present half and shaking. huh. it has been sworn in in mogadishu. mahmud secured a landslide victory against the incumbent mohammed of de la. he for much, you know, he'll have to deal with security threats. rising inflation and severe trumps. and 11 year old girl in the us as described how she smeared herself with a classmates blood to avoid being killed during my shooting. it was part of testimony in front of us congress to call for gun reforms. 19 children and 2 teachers were shot dead at her school and o val de texas last month. mike. hannah has more from washington d. c. in law makers on capitol hill hearing emotional 1st hand accounts of the devastating human impact of gun violence in the us. she
6:33 pm
thought about the room go only regardless of the teachers, because when i told her that i will need help and believe after her record a testimony, the father of the 11 year old school shooting survivor told members of congress that the family is now dealing with a subsequent trauma look today, i come because they've gotten lost my baby girl. she's that same little girl that age to play with angram wood and do everything because she was that is little girl. i don't know what to do cuz i would think i would have lost my baby girl. she's everything not only for me,
6:34 pm
but her siblings and her mother. but i wish something would change. not only for kids, but every single kid in the world. schools are not safe anymore. another parent, the mother of a 21 year old, who was severely injured in the buffalo, new york shooting last month, issued a direct appeal to lawmakers. you are elected because you had been chosen and are trusted to protect us. but let me say to you here today, i do not feel protected. no citizen needs an air 15. these weapons are designed to do the most harm in the least amount of time. and on saturday may 14th. it's it a domestic terrorist, just 2 minutes to shoot and killed, and people and injured 3 others can still see her walking windows toward the exit. this mother called for a ban on the type of assault rifle used to kill her 10 year old daughter in new vaal, the texas. when this moment, we asked for progress,
6:35 pm
we seek to raise the age to purchase these weapons from 18 to 21 years of age. basic red flag loss, stronger background checks. we also want to repeal gun manufacturers liability in unity. why these are measures supported by democrats in congress and echoed by several members during the hearing. no civilian is an assault rifle, and the 2nd amendment does not protect the right to own a weapon of war. it's time that we banned assault rifles from our streets, from our communities, from our homes. but even on an occasion like this, the partisan divide is all to clear republicans weary of what they call an assault on the right to bear arms. calling for added security in schools rather than new gun control legislation to after tragedies are politicized for partisan gang. and
6:36 pm
we have seen many seek to leverage these crimes and their victims to push for lack radical left wing policies or to beatrice. their campaigns to get elected a division reflected in the senate to where 9 republican votes would be needed to pass any meaningful legislation votes that are likely to be forthcoming on anything other than the most tepid of measures. mike hannah, outages era washington, well join him lies a white house correspondent, kimberly hal kitten and kimberly festival such difficult statements and testimony to actually hear from those of her experienced violence at 1st hand through weapons . so what happens next, politically well, we've just had another bit of legislation that has been passed in the house of representatives, the latest 2 pieces of legislation and 2 days in the house of representatives, the latest red flag laws. this is legislation that would entice states that don't
6:37 pm
already have in place what it is is a program essentially that would allow for there to be a program that would if someone is known to potentially be harmful to themselves or others and owns a gun, the person could potentially have that gun taken away from them. if a court is condition petitioned and deems that that person is unsafe to handle a gun so that legislation is to pass. and previously, one day earlier we saw legislation passed in the house of representatives that would make it illegal to own a automatic rifle under the age of 21 and also been high capacity magazines. now here's the problem. as they have to pass both chambers of the us congress and where these legislation pieces legislation run is trouble is when they get to the
6:38 pm
us senate where they are expected to pass. instead, what we've got going on there is a group of bipartisan senators discussing some water down versions of these legislation, namely gun control measures that would look into essentially background checks and also a boosting school security. and that is something that potentially could pass both chambers. now, what we know in all of this is that the u. s. president. he was asked if he was speaking out in california on wednesday evening. if you put in place an executive order in response to these school, should the school shooting and you've all the texas as well as what we've seen in recent weeks around the country. a spate of mass shootings if he will take action because congress is unable to do so. the president said, no, he's not going to do that. instead, what, who are you to do is let congress play out and to do its job. and what he's pressing for is for the revival of what he was able to do back in the 1990 s. as
6:39 pm
a us senator. and that is an assault weapons found that he said really did reduce gun crime nationally in the united states. something that he would like to sign into law as president. so the years president, still holding, have a lot of hope. the congress can do its job right now. the best hope seems to be an agreement in the us senate on some watered down version of the legislation. we've seen passing in the house of representatives in the last few days for the update. thank you. kimberly how get that all white house correspondent the man has been charged with the attempted murder of us supreme court justice brett cabinet. the 26 year old was arrested nick havner's home in the state of maryland. on wednesday, he was armed with a gun and a knife. he told police he planned to kill calvin, and he was motivated by the justice, his views on gun control, and abortion rights. a us congressional committee is to begin public hearings into
6:40 pm
